There are various options, and it depends on your work flow and the
people that you expect to use the code. If they get a working copy of
the directory (with only the Rnw-files*) and then build/install the
package, they get the pdfs; so you do not need to add the pdfs. (If they
don't build the package, you could also distribute the tarball.)
You can also build the vignettes through 'Sweave' (in the utils package;
or use 'R CMD Sweave'). Or, after you ran 'R CMD check', go to the
'<pkg>.Rcheck' directory it created: there you will also find the pdfs
(under /<pkg>/doc). Or simply extract the pdfs from the *.tar.gz.
As I said, it depends on your work flow and the work flow of your
coworkers. If you need to provide the pdfs, you can decide on one way
and then write some batch-file that automates the procedure.

Dear Enrico,
Many thanks for your reply.I was doing R CMD check pkg ( where pkg is the
directory name and NOT the tar ball ). May I ask another query or should
this goto R-devel ? Once I do a R CMD build the vignette PDF's are inside
the tar ball ,how will I put the PDF for the vignette in the pkg/inst/doc/
of my svn folder so I can commit it and other people can see no bugs when
the check the directory. Perhaps I am misunderstanding something much more
basic.
Best Regards,
Ashim

Hi Ashim,
after 'R CMD build' the vignettes are in the<pkg>*.tar.gz file, not in
your package directory. So if you run 'R CMD build<pkg>' and then 'R CMD
check<pkg>*.tar.gz', you should not get that warning.
For such questions you may get better answers on R-devel; see, eg, this
thread here

Dear R-helpers,
www.statistik.lmu.de/~*leisch***/*Sweave*/*Sweave*-Rnews-2003-**2.pdf<http://www.statistik.lmu.de/%7E*leisch*/*Sweave*/*Sweave*-Rnews-2003-2.pdf>
says that R CMD build creates the pdf from a .Rnw file. But when I do R
CMD
build followed by R CMD check it gives me a warning that there is a
vignette
without a PDF. My query is : when
R CMD build works it creates a pdf in the doc subdirectory of the
directory
returned by system.file(package = mypackage) and not in the inst/doc
directory of the package that we are creating. Do we have to Sweave and
create the pdf in the inst/doc subdirectory on our own ? Please clarify.
Regards,
Ashim
